I have taken backup of database and the necessary folders from c:\program files/McAfee EPO(Work, DB, Apache, conf and security keys)

My plan is to disconnect network cable from the physical machine and then reset that computer account in active directory,

on the VM which is windows server 2008 R2x64 Standard edition with SQL 2008, I will give this VM name same as my old ePO server name and also the old ip address and start the installation of ePO4.6 with Antivirus 8.8 P3

Now guide me the procedure, will i face any issue from Virus scan 8.7 P4 to viruscan 8.8 P3, Any prequisites needed.

Please do guide me the procedure i have more than 2000 computers with lots of exceptions, policies and my ePO is also not connected to outside world.

is this the right procedure to disconnect network cable and resetting account in active directory and doing the ePO4.6 installation.
